B. Review
I would like to ask question, what
our last discussion all about?
Who can simplify the meaning Force is something to push or pull
effects of force? to change the position of an
object it can also change its size,
shape, and in motion.
Very good.
Who can give me an example? Pulling your shoelace.
Throwing a ball.
Very good.
Any question related to this topic?
C. Motivation
Look at the picture above. Have you No teacher.
tried this Filipino game called sack
race?
Yes, teacher we see it in tv, but
Are you familiar with this game? we never try that kind of game.
The one who hops the fastest will
win the race. Just like you are
walking to school, you take note of
how fast you walk to reach the
school before your class starts. A
faster walk means a shorter time to
reach your destination. The slower
you walk, the longer time you spend
walking to reach the school.
D. Lesson Proper
A. Activity
Let’s have an activity it is called
“The Speedy Race”.
Materials:
. Two paper ball (or any small
objects)
Activity:
Race time!
. Two students will hold a paper ball
at the starting line.
. On my signal, race the two-paper
ball to a designated finish line.
Yes teacher.
Are you ready?
Analysis
What have you observed about our It is about how fast or slow an
activity? object.
Which paper ball was slow?
Carl’s paper ball teacher.
Which student finished the race
faster? Georgia’s paper ball teacher.
What do you mean for something to Fast means moving quickly,
be fast or slow? covering a distance in a short
amount time.
Slow means moving slow, taking
a longer time to cover the same
How can we tell if one object is distance.
faster than another?
We can tell if one object is faster
than another by observing which
one reaches the same destination
in less time.
Abstraction
Now, let us discuss about speed.
Speed is the rate at which an
object’s position changes, measured
in meters per second.
Speed is a scalar quantity that
refers to how fast an object is
moving.
Speed is the rate at which an object
moves.
Defends on the distance traveled
and the time it takes to travel that
distance.
Speed is defined as distance
traveled divided by the time of
travel.
SPEED FORMULA
60 km\h
For example:
A car travels 120 kilometers in 2
hours. 1.5 hours or 1 hour and 30 mins.
What is its speed?
A cyclist travels 15 kilometers at a 8.33 meter per second.
speed of 10 kilometers per hour.
How long does it take?
A runner covers 100 meters in 12
seconds. What is their speed?
Application
Let’s have a short quiz. Get 1 piece
of paper and answer the following.
1. A boy walks at a speed of 4 5 hours
kilometers per hour and walks 20
kilometers. How long does it take
him to walk the distance?
7.5 m\h
2. A cyclist travels 15 miles in 2
hours. What is their speed?
50 km\h
3. A car travels 150 kilometers in 3
hours. What is its speed?
D. Generalization
Who can summarize our discussion
today?
No teacher.
Do you have any questions
regarding our topic?
IV. Evaluation
Keep all your things inside your bag.
And let’s have a short quiz.
Direction: Draw a star in the
space provided if the statement is
correct, circle
if not.
_______1. Speed refers to how fast
an object is moving.
_______2. Speed is the rate at which
an object moves.
_______3. Speed must always include
a direction.
_______4. Speed is the distance
traveled per unit of time.
_______5. Speed is the rate at which
an object’s position changes,
measured in meters per second.
V. Assignment:
Direction: Answer the following
question. Write it in your science
notebook.
8.33 m\s
1. Problem: A runner completes a
100-meter race in 12 seconds. What
is their average speed? 800 km\h
2. Problem: An airplane flies 2400
kilometers in 3 hours. What is their
average speed? 2.5 centimeters per minute
3. Problem: A snail crawls 5
centimeters in 2 minutes. What is its
average speed in centimeters per
minute?
